Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation Wars confronts the emotions of innovation and explains how innovation isn’t really about new ideas, but about the people who execute them. The modern economy brings a multitude of challenges for organizations. Digital culture has taken over as a prime driver of consumer behavior, startups are continuously disrupting traditional industries, and organizations are going out of business as a rising number have announced intentions to launch innovation labs or partner with nimbler organizations. The economy has evolved into a battlefield, full of attempts, failures, and successes. Innovation Wars provides new business designs, new tools, and new frameworks for today’s leaders to steer their organization towards success. Technology guru Scott Bales looks at the models of successful organizations, mapping out a strategic roadmap to success with a fresh take on the nature of innovation. He guides business leaders through a journey of self-reflection on their way to experimentation and value proposition discovery. Readers are given practical tools they can apply in their current organization to reduce the guess work in strategy and market success. They learn to do things the likes of Uber, Airbnb, and Amazon have done time and time again: harness the power of their voice to find new ways to solve old problems and unlock market frustration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How and when do military innovations take place? Do they proceed differently during times of peace and times of war? In Winning the Next War, Stephen Peter Rosen argues that armies and navies are not forever doomed to "fight the last war." Rather, they are able to respond to shifts in the international strategic situation. He also discusses the changing relationship between the civilian innovator and the military bureaucrat. In peacetime, Rosen finds, innovation has been the product of analysis and the politics of military promotion, in a process that has slowly but successfully built military capabilities critical to American military success. In wartime, by contrast, innovation has been constrained by the fog of war and the urgency of combat needs. Rosen draws his principal evidence from U.S. military policy between 1905 and 1960, though he also discusses the British army's experience with the battle tank during World War I.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Lakes are the largest collection of fresh surface water on earth, and more than 40 million Americans and Canadians live in their basin. Will we divert water from the Great Lakes, causing them to end up like Central Asia's Aral Sea, which has lost 90 percent of its surface area and 75 percent of its volume since 1960? Or will we come to see that unregulated water withdrawals are ultimately catastrophic? Peter Annin writes a fast-paced account of the people and stories behind these upcoming battles. Destined to be the definitive story for the general public as well as policymakers, The Great Lakes Water Wars is a balanced, comprehensive look behind the scenes at the conflicts and compromises that are the past-and future-of this unique resource.

Book excerpt: This book explores the evolution of the current U.S. research and development enterprise, asks whether this organization remains appropriate to the challenges we face today, and proposes strategies for better preparing for the global technology race shaping our future. Across the globe, nation states and societies, as well as corporations, technology developers, and even individuals, find themselves on the front lines of a global technology race. As we approach the third decade of this century, the outlines of the contest have become clear. Spending on research and development, such new methods as innovation centers, and inclusion of powerful technologies into governments and society are occurring at a rapid pace. Technology winners and losers are emerging. How did we arrive at this global technology fight? How and where will it be waged? What can we do to prepare for the future? In 10 chapters, Tech Wars addresses these questions and more, examining the conditions that have led us to this point and introducing new strategies, organizational changes, and resource allocations that will help the United States respond to the challenges that are on the horizon.

Book excerpt: Praise for Innovation´s Missing Link "It´s a pleasure for me to recommend this book to you. It delivers on its promise. Its message is clear. Its point of view is always poignant. The future of innovation will be greatly improved if leaders across the country read and adopt the mind-set of this great book." --Tom Kuczmarski, Senior Partner, innovation consultancy, Kuczmarski & Associates; Author of Managing New Products and Innovation; Adjunct Professor, Kellogg School of Management; Cofounder of the Chicago Innovation Awards "...an insightful and actionable guidebook on how to effect innovative change in the minds of the leaders and associates within an organization. I especially enjoyed the emphasis on the people dimension, which is lacking in other similar texts...an easy read." --David Orwick, Director, Product Strategy, H&R Block Tax & Business Services Overview Innovation's Missing Link is not just another book about innovation or about some secret to successful innovation. It is a comprehensive and holistic discussion about the universal process of innovation as well as many insights into human nature and management skills. It goes where no book on innovation has gone before. Its style is narrative and numerous true stories are used to add entertainment value, drive home key points, and add to the experience of the reader. Rather than using endless statistics to create credibility, the author draws on 37 years of practical experience and common sense. Most people can recognize the ring of truth and don't require a lot of supporting data if the premise is reasonably stated. Above all else, this book respects the time constraints that most of us find ourselves battling every day. This is a reader-friendly book, in that it places the burden of communication on the writer. The reader is told the essence and value of the ideas presented before the themes are developed and then the key points are briefly summarized at the end of each chapter. There is never a need to skim ahead searching for important information or the essence of a concept all the fluff has been eliminated and the reader is never left wondering where she is being led. A brief introduction discusses the author's credentials as well as the purpose, premise, and goal of the book. The expected value of the information is individually summarized for Senior Executives, New Products Managers, Marketing Managers, and Students. The universality of the innovation process is briefly discussed. Part 1 of the book focuses on the innovation process. Part 2 summarizes the author's experience with topics related to innovation such as patents, focus groups, and underserved markets. Part 3 summarizes the material presented in Parts 1 and 2. A three chapter Addendum addresses the rising trends of spirit in the workplace and socially conscious capitalism. This section also introduces "The Slinky Principle." New and provocative ideas are blended with time-tested processes throughout the book. The primary objective is to identify what works and processes that improve efficiency and results. Respect for human nature is a constant theme. Diversity and individuality are seen as essential to success. Some Highlights and Features 40 Thoughts on Innovation A quick guide to important themes developed in the book with page numbers referenced. Actions Ideas Suggested exercises for readers intended to maximize results. Chapter Overview Each chapter starts with a brief statement of the intent and theme to be developed.
